The 8 Best Dessert Clubs
Where Can You Get the Most Delectable Dessert Clubs?
You've seen it all when it comes to subscription boxes, from makeup and spa products to arts and crafts - but sometimes with mixed results, right? If you're looking for a monthly delivery that will have just about anyone smiling from ear to ear, check out the options for dessert clubs! After all, who doesn't have a sweet tooth?
Most dessert clubs start out the same. Choose if you want a plan with deliveries for three, six, or twelve months, decide which month it should start, enter the shipping address and off you go. You or your gift recipient are now slated to get mouth-watering treats on the regular. But, there's a lot of variety when you compare one provider to another, and that's where your own unique personality can come through a little.

2023 Dessert Club Reviews
Amazing Clubs
Amazing Clubs is a fantastic choice for any kind of monthly club membership, and their dessert club continues to be our favorite. You won't find any other subscription that offers this level of quality, consistency and attention to customer service, and you'll have tons of flexibility with respect to payment options and delivery schedules. For yourself or for someone else as a gift, the dessert club at Amazing Clubs is a winner.
Phivi
Would you like an assortment of desserts instead of just one? Then check out Phivi's monthly club. Every box has at least eight different artesanal treats, all made within just a few days of being packaged and shipped. You can easily specify any allergies or sensitivities, as well as your favorite color and most-loved treats, and Phivi's team will make every effort to keep all of that in mind. This isn't the least expensive dessert club out there, but it's the perfect choice if you or your recipient delight in trying many different sweets from month to month.
Chocolate Maven
Chocolate Maven is the most recent addition to our dessert club reviews, and what a splash they've made. Your membership can include one or two specialty desserts, crafted with love in their Santa Fe bakery, all without any long-term subscriptions or big upfront payments. The treats sent out in the Monthly Maven boxes are displayed on the website, and if there's one you don't care for, just call and ask for a substitution. We're sure you're going to love everything about Chocolate Maven's monthly dessert club.
Shari's Berries
Shari's Berries has upped the ante with their dipped strawberry selection: now you can choose among over a dozen varieties, from milk and dark chocolate to sprinkles, nuts, and even "unicorn-colored" . Your dessert club membership can last anywhere from three months to a year, and you can schedule deliveries to come weekly, biweekly or every 4-8 weeks. These sweets are carefully packaged to arrive chilled and fresh, and customers have great things to say about the berries and the company behind them. It's not going to give you as much variety as the higher-rated dessert clubs we reviewed, but it's a terrific option if you (or your recipient) are big fans of strawberries.
David's Cookies
David's Cookies is an all-around winner among dessert clubs, from a company with a history spanning more than 40 years. Each month will bring you something new, like scones or cheesecake, and everything is backed by a 30-day, 100% satisfaction guarantee. Plus, this may be the only dessert club with treats that are certified kosher. David's Cookies should be on your list of options when choosing a dessert subscription.
Wolferman's
Wolferman's Dessert Club is called Bakery Favorites, and you'll get an interesting variety of baked goods: depending on which months you choose for your subscription, you could receive brownies for dessert or bagels and waffles for breakfast (or, have the brownies for breakfast and the bagels for dinner, we won't judge). This is one of the most affordable dessert clubs we reviewed, but it would benefit from some customer reviews to help shoppers decide if it's worth the money.
Harry & David
Harry & David is well known for its sweet treats, from Moose Munch to cookies and beyond. Their Dessert of the Month Club includes a nice range of products, from traditional pies and cheesecakes to more novel items like truffles and scones. With no free shipping, this membership is a little more expensive than most - and there's not much customer feedback to determine if it's worth it. We recommend looking at the higher-ranked dessert clubs before settling on Harry & David's.
Flying Noodle
Flying Noodle is an Italian specialty shop, offering a range of pastas, sauces, and sweets for almost 30 years. Their Dessert of the Month Club includes a treat that serves 6-10 people: you might get cake, cookies, cupcakes or other baked goods. Although we appreciate the gift-giving options here, there's just not enough detail about the desserts you (or your recipient) can expect - and very little feedback from other club members. In many ways, Flying Noodle doesn't keep up with the competition.
Continued from above...
Are you more of a "give me one big treat I can share" ? Or more of a "let me taste lots of smaller sweets" kind of person? You'll find dessert clubs that cater to either one.
Would you like to have some say-so over what gets included in each box, or would you rather let the bakery make those decisions? That's another good way to choose among the available dessert clubs: while almost all of them tell you in advance what to expect from month to month, some let it be a total surprise and others give you the chance to skip any upcoming shipments that aren't to your liking - or even request a substitution. Whether your style is "surprise me" or "follow my lead" can determine which dessert club is your ideal match.
The last factors influencing your delicious decision are schedule and budget. Most dessert subscriptions come in at a monthly price of around $40, give or take. That doesn't always include shipping, so don't forget to keep that in mind. Most require you to pay for all of your deliveries upfront, but a few let you pay as you go. Also, the majority of dessert clubs have fixed plans ranging from three months to a year, though there are options that can be set up as month-to-month for as long as you choose to subscribe.
You're almost ready to pick the perfect dessert club. Just watch out for a few more things as you decide:
- Types of Desserts. Most clubs consist of baked goods, but a few specialize in chocolate-covered berries or include breakfast foods like bagels or waffles. What do you have in mind?
- Reputation. What do previous recipients of your dessert club say about the experience? Were their deliveries consistent in quality and delivery timeframes?
- Customer Service. When shipping perishable items like cheesecake and pie, it's inevitable that there will be issues from time to time. How does the dessert club provider handle problems? Is there a good satisfaction guarantee in place?
To help you satisfy your sweet tooth, TopConsumerReviews.com has evaluated and ranked today's most delicious dessert clubs. We're sure this information will make it possible to get some amazing treats delivered right to your doorstep - or to your lucky gift recipient's. Bon Appetit!
